AI-Powered Entrepreneurship Platform
WGU Labs | Aug 2025 to Present | Product Lead

A 0-to-1 product exploring whether AI-enhanced delivery can bring a proven entrepreneurship methodology to people underserved by traditional accelerators and VCs.

I own this end-to-end: strategy, research, prototyping, and day-to-day execution, with support from a user researcher and Claude Code as my primary working tool.

What I'm Doing

The project started stalled and ambiguous: no clear direction, no owner, multiple stakeholders waiting. I took it from there to active market validation in under 5 months.

  • Led strategic research combining primary data, landscape analysis, and partner methodology analysis (three sources that pointed in different directions)
  • Synthesized conflicting data into a phased strategy that got executive buy-in
  • Designed an AI behavior framework that defined not just what the AI should do, but what it explicitly should not
  • Built and iterated prototypes, testing with real users to surface insights design reviews would have missed
  • Currently managing parallel workstreams across user research, market testing, pilot programs, and external partnerships

Skills Demonstrated

  • Strategic research: turning ambiguity into a recommendation with evidence
  • Synthesis under conflict: making sense of data that disagrees
  • AI product design: defining AI behavior, boundaries, and interaction models
  • Rapid prototyping: 6 iterations in a day using Claude Code
  • Stakeholder alignment: achieving buy-in without formal authority
  • Solo execution: owning strategy through delivery as the only full-time PM

AI Adoption Strategy
WGU Labs | 2025 to Present | Collaborating with Ops

Partnering with the operations team on how the organization adopts AI. My role is strategy and modeling. I run Claude Code daily across real product work, then translate what I learn into training, playbooks, and demos that help others adopt with confidence. I facilitated the team's first AI upskilling workshop and demonstrated the full PM architecture to leadership, which opened broader conversations about adoption across the org.

Innovation Framework for Product Development
WGU Labs | 2026 to Present | Early stage

I noticed our team was spending months on deep research before any user contact, an R&D pattern that doesn't fit product development. So I drafted a four-phase innovation loop (Sense, Shape, Test, Scale) with time-boxed cycles and explicit go/pivot/kill criteria. I'm testing it on my own project first and have presented it to leadership as a proposal. Still early.
